Dave We have LED on 98% of the RV this one is the light in the shower sky light.
The others were the ones I replaced it the basement, the docking station, and the battery compartment. No I thinks the only light on my RV that in not LED is the hitch light..

We do but it's still incandescent. Seldom on so I saw no point to swap it out same with others i.e. closets, basement, etc

Mine actually quit on me. So I took it apart and wiggled the bulb around and it worked. Then it didn't, then it did. back and forth. When it was on only for a few seconds it got really hot and the light got really hot to.
So you know me !!! "Light bulb in my head go on"
I CAN MAKE THIS BETTER.
Now I have 99.9% LED lights in my RV

I have two lights above my bed that I want to change. They get really hot too. They use the 1383 bulbs but I don't usually turn them on at all.

Put in the LED lights with the dimmers and you'll use them a lot more.
You don't turn them on because there to darn bright.

That is quite possible. They are really really bright.

Just pick our baby back up from the dealer today NOT really a successful trip but 1 out of 3 isn't bad right. Heartland sent 3 part and all 3 were wrong. That's all I'm going to say.
Anyway glad she's back. I can get back to work.

Also received my double remote for my RV-Locks
Really nice to have my entry door and my basement doors separated and both on 1 remote.

Spent most of the day on a few repairs on Mod's

I'll start with the water line going to the refrigerator. It starter leaking a few weeks ago so I shut off the valve and order 25' of Stainless steel braided refrigerator ice maker water line.
25' was plenty for my set up.
Most of this is on another post so I'm going to save me some time and copy the link.

Next Mod
I was under the big slide rerouting the new water line and found yet more poor workmanship. The J-wrap support bracket was a joke you could move the bottom of the J-wrap in and out 2 or 3 inches. So I removed there cheap light piece of molding channel that they found laying on the ground somewhere and decided to use it on my Landmark. I made a new bracket out of a piece of 1/8 X 3/4 inch steel I had here. Painted it and installed. Now it is solid as a rock. It doesn't move the slightest bit.

The way I have it wedged in on the back side it is tight.

I didn't like how when that slide was out the electrical wire and coax cable support hung down quite a bit. I had this Idea a while back to give it a lift, I was thinking of a cable that gets tight when the slide goes out. Then I thought of somthing a little more forgiving. Like a bungee cord

Bones · Jul 16, 2016

I like your bungee cord fix. I was looking at mine too the last trip.

Jesstruckn/Jesstalkn · Jul 16, 2016

Thanks Dave
I think it's going to help everything last a lot longer that's for sure.

Back at it today, LED light strip Mod complete.

I finally got around to rewiring the underside LED light strip. I needed the get the control box out of the propane cabinet asap.
I removed the 120v control box and soldered on a 10-foot 4 wire extension wire to the end of the strip. Then fished the wire down the side underneath the basement floor, then into the basement, behind the wall.
I wired in the new 12v control box (the same type as my welcome sign) now the welcome sign and the LED strip are controlled by the same remote and are in sync with each other. Or they can be separated.
"I'll have to get my pictures tonight".
I ran the 12v wire up to the control panel inside and piggybacked into the awning receptacle control switch. So now if I forget to turn them off from the remote outside I can just cut the power at the switch inside.

Well you know me I can't leave well enough alone.
I added a pressure gauge at the inlet of my water pressure regulator. Now I can easily see what park pressure is before it goes through my regulator. Just more useful information. Also this will tell me if I need to worry about high pressure when I go to flush out the black tank.
All of this is permanently mounded in the docking station. So no hassles at all just pop your water hose on with the quick-coupler and turn on the water.

Jerrod,

Add a couple more devices and the quick connect will be dragging on the road.

Jesstruckn/Jesstalkn · Jul 17, 2016

LOL I'm still inside the docking station

Is the Mi light IR or RF. I put my light box just under the propane tank for now.
